Join us today (Monday) as the financial affairs department presents at a “Let’s Work Together†session from noon to 1 p.m. in the Cap and Gown Room. Come and learn what really happens to all that paperwork that you are continually required to “submit†to the finance office and how we can work together to try to make that paperwork shuffle as painless as possible.
Bring your lunch (or grab one in the Bruin Den) and join us for a time of networking with a fun and interactive presentation.

Are you traveling overseas this summer or going on Juniors Abroad and need immunizations?
The Health Center gets very busy this time of year, so please try to schedule your travel visit for immunizations before spring break. The earlier you get your shots the better chance you have of them protecting you on your trip! Don’t wait until two weeks before your trip!
Please call the Health Center at 503-554-2340 to schedule your appointment.

The Portland Center food drive for the Northeast Portland Backpack Lunch Program begins Monday, March 4!
The program serves more than 170 students at four Northeast Portland schools. Oregon hunger statistics are higher than the national average. We can’t solve this problem completely, but our community can make a world of difference to this group of children!
From March 4 through March 15, please bring your food donations to the bins provided in the lobby of the Portland Center. Suggested items include: cans of chili, soup, ravioli in meat sauce, boxes of mac & cheese, small juice boxes (100 percent juice only, no foil containers), individual serving fruit cups, healthy snacks, small packages of dried fruits, oatmeal cups, etc.
Monetary donations can be made at the Information Desk. A $100 donation sponsors a child for weekend meals for the entire school year. Donation checks made out to Fremont United Methodist Church will be tax deductible.
